I know there seems to be fewer and fewer of us VT buffs out there, and almost no sources of some parts. I tried the Honda shops used parts places and web sellers for a few bits and came across CMSNL.com (Consolidate Motor Spares). I needed a clutch cable and some bits that do not show as available on 4 US sites. Reasonable prices and I got my order within a week of ordering, and that is from the Netherlands! So, if you are really searching try them out, same basic search system to order as others.
